👋 I’m Lois

I'm a person doing things.

Currently, I work as Associate Creative Director at Phantom.

After studying fine art and visual communication for 4 years, I timed my graduation and entrance into the world of full-time employment with the 2008 global recession. Searching for commercial art projects at that time did wonders for developing a thick skin, a sense of humour becoming commercially-minded FAST - all vital qualities for anyone entering a career in advertising.

My inquisitive and experimental approach to design, advertising and communication is influenced by many things. Growing up with art teacher and copywriting parents; my curiosity of cutting-edge tech and new ways of making; my work as an editorial illustrator and a deep adoration for Stanley Kubrick to name a few.

Since then, I’ve made what my Dad would’ve described as “serious work” for clients such as Google, YouTube, Johnnie Walker, the FT and Age UK; and plenty of not-so-serious stuff for Nando's, Sony Music, Zendesk, innocent drinks and a WeWork parody, which won a Drum Award.

Talking of awards, here’s some I’ve won recently:

Webby winner 2026 AI Experiences – Education - AI Quests for Google Research
Lovie Gold and People’s Choice 2025 - AI Quests for Google Research
Lovie Gold and People’s Choice 2024 - Diageo Blend of Artistry
World Media Group Award 2024 - Google Cloud Business Resilience
Webby shortlist 2023 - Help my AI! Zendesk
Drum Chip Shop winner 2019 & 2020

I’m also a published illustrator repped by KJA Artists.
